For each dialogue, Rajni invited another performance-maker who is also a friend to be in a room with her for a week. The invitation she made was to ‘explore the space between us as friends and performance-makers’. This invitation was made in order to explore a space of listening somewhere between the familiar and the performative.

Each residency was also accompanied by two sets of audiences: a live audience who were present for the final moments of the week, and a filmmaker who was present in whatever way they chose to be during the week-long dialogue. The resulting films by Lisa Cazzato-Vieyra, Griffyn Gilligan, and Jonathan Kemp are three distinctly personal responses to the week-long dialogues, capturing moments of laughter, intimacy, frustration, confrontation, silence, dance, and indeed love. There are occasional screenings of these films, however they are not available online as the hosting is critical.
